Military Branch » Marine Corps » Barstow Marine Corps Logistics Base »


The Marine Corps Logistics Base was established as the Marine Corps Depot of Supplies at its present location on December 28, 1942, when the United States Navy turned it over to the Marine Corps as a storage site for supplies and equipment needed for Fleet Marine Forces in the Pacific theater during World War II. Barstow supports Marine forces west of the Mississippi, the Far East and Asia, while Blount Island Command provides logistical support for the Marine Corps’ Maritime Pre-Positioning Ships and the Norway Geo-Pre-Propositioning programs.
